The Pure Plumbing & Air Difference for Paradise Emergencies
Emergency calls in Paradise are about speed, capability, and equipment range. The phone has to be answered. The truck has to carry parts for central AC, heat pumps, mini-splits, and through-wall PTAC units. The technician has to handle older systems and newer ones.

Emergency AC Repair FAQs From Paradise Homeowners
Any cooling failure during dangerous heat with a vulnerable person at home. Burning smells, smoke, sparks, water pouring from the indoor unit, any electrical safety concern. Those situations usually require immediate service. Tenants in rentals without working AC during a heat wave count too. If unsure, call. We triage on the phone.
Depends on call volume and where you are. The Strip corridor, Winchester, and the Maryland Parkway area are most central to our routes. Paradise Palms and the older UNLV neighborhoods are close behind. Emergency dispatches are prioritized ahead of routine maintenance appointments.
Calls outside standard business hours may carry a service fee. We tell you the number on the phone before dispatching.
Very fast. Paradise sits on the low-elevation valley floor, which typically experiences higher sustained overnight temperatures than elevated foothill communities nearby. On a 112-degree day, an unconditioned home or apartment can climb to unsafe indoor temperatures surprisingly quickly during heat waves. Faster in older Paradise Palms homes with minimal insulation. Treat any AC failure during high heat as urgent if vulnerable people are home.
No. If the system is icing up, making new sounds, or smelling burnt, turn it off and call. Running a struggling AC on a valley-floor 110-plus day means continued operation under heavy strain, which can significantly increase repair costs.
Yes. A lot of older Paradise condos use through-wall PTAC units that many standard residential HVAC companies are not equipped to repair. We carry common PTAC parts on our emergency trucks and can repair or replace on site.
Yes. Members get priority dispatch and discounts on repair parts during emergency calls. Membership also covers preventive maintenance that catches the problems that cause emergencies in the first place.
Most calls run $150 to $500 for the visit plus parts. Capacitor swaps, the most common emergency fix, sit on the lower end. Refrigerant work on older R-22 systems, PTAC unit replacements, or after-hours weekend calls during heat waves push higher. We tell you the cost on the phone before dispatching.
Move to the coolest part of the home. Lowest level, away from windows that face direct sun. Close blinds. Run every fan you have. Stay hydrated and reduce direct sun exposure indoors as much as possible. Check on elderly neighbors, especially in older Paradise Palms and UNLV-area homes without backup cooling. If indoor temperatures climb above 90, get out: cooling center, hotel, family with working AC, until ours is back online.
Capacitor failures top the list, especially after monsoon power surges. Tripped breakers come second. Frozen coils third. Older systems also fail more often than newer ones, which means Paradise sees more compressor and refrigerant emergencies than the suburbs. Our trucks carry the parts that handle most of these on the first visit.
